Stuff It

Jenna January 18, 2021 No Comments

I had no fear. I hadn’t learned to fear anything yet. As a child I was interested in learning about everything. I climbed trees, and did so many other things that I would never even attempt now. As a child, you don’t know to be scared of things. You cry when you are sad. You […]

My Turn to Speak

Jenna December 19, 2020 No Comments

I hate speaking in public. It’s like putting yourself out there onto a stage of judgement. Everyone just stares at you with their mouths gaping open. I know it’s only five other girls, but it still scares the ever living shit out of me. My stomach is in knots. I feel like Eminem’s character in […]

Jenna September 29, 2020 No Comments

Lacing up my running shoes for the first time in over ten years was daunting. I knew that the first run was going to be an incredibly humbling experience. I walked most of it, and I ended up crying. Not a painful ‘I twisted my ankle’ sort of cry, but a lethargic release of pent […]

Jenna April 10, 2020 No Comments

The Eyes Have It All

Jenna March 30, 2020 No Comments

The eyes show fear — Fear from the soul hidden deep within, Fear from the tainted life itself, Fear from your own true being. The eyes show content — Content contained in your heart, Content flowing freely through your veins. The eyes show sadness — Sadness vaporized by the mind, Sadness creeping out of the […]

Whoa! How Did I Get Here?

Jenna March 23, 2020 No Comments

Six months ago I was in the middle of the deepest part of my depression. I remember crying into Ben's arms one day, feeling like I no longer wanted to live.
